2015 LOS CABOS GREEN FEST 2015 GREEN ACTIONS
• A festival that combines music, sports, education, activities and emotions with a sustainable spirit. • A festival with green actions with an objective to create awareness within the participants and the community to benefit our planet.
THE MOST IMPORTANT IS EDUCATION Education and awareness is the first step to build a sustainable planet. Various actions will take place in the festival to help the environment. Mexican and international companies will get together in the Expo with products and sustainable services to benefit our community and the tourism that visits Cabo. We will take an important step to bring the companies together to incorporate their product and services in Los Cabos being green destination. We will have conferences and interactive work shops with essential themes for our global awareness education with top of the line speakers. Charly Alberti, founder of Revolucion 21 and classic rock group Soda Stereo, will make us reflect in his stupendous conference of “Climate Change and the Sollution” with a strong message for the audience. We invite and incorporate all the kids and young community in Los Cabos to be part of the festival by participating with their schools in the contest “Towards a Sustainable World”.
ENVIRONMENTAL OATH Charly Alberti together with the State Government, unite all the community of Los Cabos to participate and commit to protect the environment. Together we are going to make an oath to the environment to protect with everybody help.
2015
THE ENERGY IS YOU The festival attendees and participants will help us generate most of the energy needed for the music during the events including the Expo and Conferences, beach activities and music concerts - using Pedal Power bikes. Pedal Power bikes are made for the objective to create energy through pedaling and can be adapted to all ages and sizes of the participants. A RECYCLE FESTIVAL Our festival philosophy is only to take memories and fingerprints during the events. All the accumulated trash during the festival will be 100% recycled. One of the main objectives of the festival is to create awareness within all the participants of all the actions to help and save the natural resources of our planet. SUSTAINABILITY AND SOME NUMBERS There are a lot of ways to measure the energy savings. The people participating with us during the events using Pedal Power bikes, generates energy that we can measure in watts. If one person is pedaling for one hour with an average of 100 watts per hour, would be an equivalent to burn 360 calories. If we have 12 bicycles for 7 hours of music concert, we would be burning more than 30,000 calories and generating more than 8,400 watts of energy. If we calculate the energy generated in the festival with the help of all our participants, we could easily generate an estimate of 19,200 watts, equivalent to 70,000 calories and reducing 14.5 kilograms of carbon footprint... without considering the calories burned dancing or participating in all our sport activities.
2015
A FESTIVAL WITH A GOOD CAUSE Our commitment with the community is to give back to them and to the people that need it the most. We are working together with the municipal authorities of Los Cabos for donations and fundraisers at the festival for different organizations in need as DIF Los Cabos. We hire local labor and buy local products for the festival. PROMOCIÓN Y DIFUSIÓN DEL FESTIVAL • We use 90% of the promotional material for the festival, using digital advertisement. • All the prints are in 100% recycle paper. • Everything that we use at the festival is reusable and using recycle materials.
2015 PEDAL POWER Pedal Power connects people with the power of bikes and music‌ We provide an opportunity for the audience to truly engage with the performer. Pedal Power bicycle powered audio / visual system facilitates a truly unique experience, redefining what it means to be at a show. Pedal Power Music is a very unique visual presentation of sustainability and active transportation.

OUR PARTNERS & ALLIANCES
R21 was founded by renowned musician Charly Alberti after realizing the depth of the climate change and the challenges and opportunities this crisis presents for Latin America. Leveraging on Charly´s ability to reach millions of people, R21 looks to spread the message of the global environmental crisis and its solutions. The Executive Team gathers a group of dedicated professional leaders. Each of them shares the positive vision of the Founder for a sustainable Latin America. Together, they work with passion to disseminate and educate about the global environmental crisis and help to craft creative solutions. R21 counts with three Boards of excellence consisting of some of the most prestigious scientists, businesspeople and politicians from Latin America. These professionals provide support and knowledge, helping to design effective strategies. MISSION. By educating about global environmental change, and generating mitigation and adaptation programs, we look to contribute to the sustainable development in Latin America. Leading by example, we will materialize an alternative Latin America whose growth goes hand in hand with the protection and revalorization of its natural resources. VISION. We dream of a Latin America that develops by sustainably utilizing both its human and natural wealth, thus becoming an example of  conscious growth, social inclusion and environmental protection.
CHARLY ALBERTI
Charly Alberti is the founder and drummer of SODA STEREO, the most famous band in Spanish rock history. Known as “The Beatles of Latin America”, Soda’s impact on the Continent’s culture runs deep. Indeed, their musical influence led MTV to design a special award just for them, “MTV Most Important Band of all time in Latin America”, given only once. Besides being a consummate musician, Alberti is also a pioneer in music technology. Through cutting-edge projects during the 90’s (yeyeye.com; Cybrel Digital Entertainment, URL Magazine) and as the inventor of the Internet Time (the concept of Internet time), Charly was recognized by CNN as one of the ten most important Internet personalities in Latin America. His accomplishments led to Steve Jobs naming him the only Spanish- language Apple Master in the history of Apple Computers. After a lifetime of achievements, Charly decided to pursue his passion: environmental causes. So in 2008, he joined Nobel Peace Prize winner Al Gore, in his campaign to raise awareness about global warming. Charly’s participation in Gore’s “Climate Project” was key to spread the message in Latin America to millions of people. After understanding the depth of the global environmental crisis and seeing the challenges and opportunities for Latin America, Charly determined that the region needed solutions tailored to their challenges and possibilities. Thus he launched his own organization, R21, in order to channel Latin America’s creativity, passion and vision for the future. Charly is an unparalleled leader and perfectly suited for this new project, thanks not only to his wide reach but to his vast knowledge about the region, honored after 20 years of touring with Soda Stereo.
